Găujani is a rural commune in the south of Giurgiu County, on the plain along the bank of the Danube, made up of the villages of Găujani and Pietrișu, with scattered households and plots where new houses and outbuildings are gradually appearing. In places like this, the electrical connection (bransament) is the starting point for any home before it can be lived in: a house built on a plot with no power supply, a household replacing an old connection on a pole, or an owner who wants more power for a water pump, an agricultural workshop or an EV charging station. SUN WATT, a company certified by ANRE for design and execution, serves Găujani and the village of Pietrișu, travelling to the site to measure the distance to the existing grid and to determine whether the connection (racord) is made overhead, from a nearby pole, or whether it requires an extension. We take over the entire procedure with the area's distribution operator, Retele Electrice Romania S.A. (formerly E-Distributie Muntenia / Enel): we prepare the connection application, follow up on the issuing of the Technical Connection Approval (ATR), design and execute the connection, then prepare the Utilisation Installation Dossier (DIU) through to the fitting of the meter and energisation (punere sub tensiune). For ordinary domestic consumption we usually recommend the single-phase option (230V), while for households with heavy-duty equipment we recommend the three-phase option (400V). We work on a turnkey basis, so that you do not have to make repeated trips into town for approvals and formalities.
The distribution operator for the area is Rețele Electrice România S.A. (formerly E-Distribuție Muntenia, part of the Enel group), to which all connection requests are submitted and through which the ATR, the technical connection approval, is obtained. Being a lowland commune, the usual solution remains the overhead connection from the existing low-voltage network pole, the most economical option for the scattered households, with the underground connection appearing only occasionally, where the route requires it. For a new connection one typically prepares the urban planning certificate, the proof of ownership or land registry extract, the site plan and the connection request. From the filing of the complete dossier to energisation, the indicative duration is roughly 4-12 weeks, depending on the operator's workload and the complexity of the works.
Services available in Găujani
Single-phase connection
A single-phase electrical connection (230V) is the standard supply for homes with typical consumption, usually approved up to around 11 kW. SUN WATT, an ANRE-certified company, handles the entire process from start to finish, with 2026 prices starting from 1,800 lei. The timeline from file submission to energisation is typically 4-12 weeks, with the final cost confirmed through the ATR (Technical Connection Approval).
Three-phase connection
A three-phase electrical connection (400V) is needed for high consumption or powerful equipment such as heat pumps, workshops, machine tools or EV charging stations. SUN WATT, an ANRE-attested firm, handles the entire process — from the paperwork and the Technical Connection Approval (ATR) through to energisation — typically within 4 to 12 weeks. Prices start from 2,900 lei.
Temporary site connection
A temporary site connection supplies your construction site with power throughout the building works, before the permanent connection is installed. It is obtained through a connection application and a Technical Connection Approval (ATR) from Retele Electrice Romania, and is carried out by an ANRE-certified company. Prices start from 2,200 lei (labour plus materials, excluding the operator's fees), with the whole process usually taking around 4-12 weeks.
Grid connection
Electricity grid connection is the process of linking a plot, house or new premises to the electricity distribution network so you can have your own meter and power at the socket. The process involves six stages: the connection request, the Technical Connection Approval (ATR), the connection contract, the ANRE-certified service line works, the Utilization Installation Dossier (DIU) and meter installation. In Bucharest, Ilfov and Giurgiu the network operator is Retele Electrice Romania S.A. (Distributie Energie Electrica Romania). The service starts from 900 lei (labour, excluding operator fees) and typically takes 4 to 12 weeks.
Power increase
A power increase means raising the approved electrical power at your existing connection when your current installation can no longer cope with your consumption. It is carried out through an application to the operator Retele Electrice Romania (Distributie Energie Electrica Romania), followed by a new ATR (Technical Connection Approval), a contract and any required connection changes. In 2026, labour starts from 350 lei (excluding operator fees), with an indicative duration of 4 to 12 weeks.
Prosumer / solar connection
Connecting a photovoltaic system to the grid as a prosumer means submitting a connection application to Retele Electrice Romania (Distributie Energie Electrica Romania). SUN WATT, an ANRE-certified company, prepares the full dossier, obtains the ATR (Technical Connection Approval), and coordinates the installation of a bidirectional meter so you can feed your surplus energy back into the grid.
